Just reading the latest Wheels magazine, with the review of the Ecoboost Falcon four cylinder.
This is what I imagined years ago when I was considering what "the future of Australian cars" was going to look like. Amazing economy, a full sized rear drive sedan, quiet, comfortable, cheaper rego (for those states, like Queensland, where four cylinders are much cheaper to register), and performance that, to be blunt, is better than Porsches of only a couple of decades back. Their quote was that it is quicker than XR6T's of years back, quicker than the legendary "Blue Meanie" SS Commodore, and more power than five liter V8's of not long back. They end up giving it extremely high praise, and refreshingly not once did they mention the demise of the Falcon. |
